Paper Abstract:
|
This paper describes the evaluation of a mobile language learning system PALLAS by language teachers. The aim of the
paper is to draw attention to the role of teachers in the design of mobile language learning systems and their perspectives
on such systems. Three main issues were identified during the evaluation; mobility of the learner versus mobility of the
teacher, learner-centred versus teacher-centred and the effort required by teachers and the need for collaboration among
teachers. The paper discusses ideas for enhancing the design of PALLAS to address the issues raised by the teachers. |
